Well put! Food webs, a more detailed scheme of energy flow through an ecosystem than the classic food chain, are so intricate and complicated. Removing a major predator like the bass could very well, as you pointed out, hurt hitch populations more than help.

Im glad we are getting this all down on this forum, in case the day comes where we need to put forth an argument to help keep Hitch rehabilitation projects in line with everyones interest.
